yes, i've read through this whole forum and there was nothing that really helped me, i've tried it all

i recently imported the magnaguard msh into xsi and gave him uber shoulder pads and crazy horns on the side of his head, as well as enlarging his feet
i used beta template by psych0fred and followed the instructions
no matter what i do, though, when i play the game, there are no anims.
in the odf, i have the anim set to darth maul, and i have his weapon set to darth maul's lightsaber
the magnaguards sort of "slide" around with their arms out and shaped like a small letter "t"
HELP!!

I feel extremely sorry for you!

Did you give him Maul's combo?

Do you have all the necessary files in your side?

Sarcasm?
Perhaps related to the incident in the released assets forum?
Honestly, i read all the way to page 11 in the XSI bf2 series forum.

To everyone else, yes, my magnaguard functioned 100% perfectly until i remodelled him.

Try going back and use the default Magnaguard if that fixes it then theres your problem.

Nope, I was being sincere, it's quite sad really.
All of the info you need is here, if you don't understand it the first time you read it then read it again and again and follow along as you're reading so you will get a better understanding of the process.
I don't think you setup your unit correctly, and yes we do have much information here in regards to setting up a unit, and if it was setup correctly i'm thinking you may have exported it using a 3rd party exporter.

Is it possible that assuming you used meshex the bone structure didn't come through properly?

yes, i'm using mshex
everything i've done so far though has been perfectly fine
i think there may have been a bone enveloping problem
something to do with the skeleton?
when importing a .obj file, what settings are necessary?
it may have been that something went wrong then, because i didn't see any bones in the explorer window
so i just tried using psych0fred's beta unit template, and that made ZERO difference

EDIT: There's no rush, i've got a space map i'm working on in the background which also needs help.

MshEx will not do player models, it doesn't export the skeleton.

Problem solved I beleive.

Yep this is solved, and just to clarify from here on so we don't have people saying there's no information anywhere in this forum that can help them, here's a quote from the MshEx Beta 3 topic:

RepSharpshooter wrote: What it does:

• Visible mesh (textures, uvs, normals, etc)
• Nulls
• Hierarchy
• Rotation
• Translation

That's it, don't ask for more.

At no point does it say MshEx supports envelope or weight data and that means NO player models, use the Pandemic Tools to export these!
